we wrote everything ourselves. what would you like to try?

it's funny to think about how the advantages of compact encoding influenced the progress of technology. would like to think that we're getting past this by way of Unicode, but this is an analysis problem, so character 'visual encoding' rears its head again.

of course, people are fantastically good at it, if trained in school. looking at /other/ people's scripts though, well, here we are. :)

absolutely, though some character sets such as chinese are a few orders of magnitude more complex. stretch goal, we're working on it :)

and we aim to, Dec. 31st. :)

yep, this is a word-for-word translation, because it's fast and it gets the point across. we're working to improve translation quality and finesse, but it's a much harder problem to understand grammar. so, we hope it gives the general meaning, and you can learn to piece it apart.

you'll have to download and try it :)

(hola, i'm john deweese, one of the creators) good to hear the early positive response, and we look forward to your insightful feedback (support@questvisual.com) -- mention this site so we pay some extra attention.

i hope this app will be nice and disruptive, and we'll be looking carefully at what people expect and how they actually use it. it's a platform, and we're really excited about the directions it opens up.

thanks for the link, cheers!
